The Australian Open is over for the locals. Some Australians impressed and others didn't live up to expectations. Here's how we graded them.
Jannik Sinner cemented his status as the hard-court king of men’s tennis with his second-consecutive Australian Open title.
On a mild Sunday evening in Melbourne, world number one Jannik Sinner of Italy claimed the Australian Open’s Norman Brookes Challenge Cup, besting Germany’s Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6, 6-3 in the 2025 men’s final.
World number two Alex Zverev credited his brother Mischa for his mastery of left-handers after beating a 26th in succession in Frenchman Ugo Humbert to reach the Australian Open quarter-finals on Sunday. Zverev honed his game with left-handed Mischa, a former top-30 player who reached the quarter-finals at Melbourne Park in 2017.
